Cellular Alchemy and the Golden Age of Reprogramming
نویسنده
چکیده
The 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology recognizes the architects of two of the great paradigm-shifting discoveries of the last half-century of biology. In experiments performed nearly 50 years apart, Gurdon and Yamanaka made feasible the reawakening of pluripotency inherent in all cells and challenged forever our notions of cellular identity.

I-5: Fifteen Years after Dolly: The Perspectives on Cellular Reprogramming
s:1202:"It is a truly amazing time to developmental biology. During recent decades, three important breakthroughs have been developed: (i) isolation of stem cells from embryo, (ii) animal cloning by nuclear transfer (NT), and (iii) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS). Considering these three approaches of "Cellular Reprogramming", it seems that the required elements for cell therapy now ex...

a:4:{s:10:"Background";s:1707:"Early embryonic development in mammals begins in transcriptional silence with an oocyte-mediated transcriptional reprogramming of parental gametes occurs during a so called across-the-board process of “erase-and-rebuild”. In this process, the parental transcription programs are erased long before (maternal) or soon thereafter (paternal) fertilization to generate a...
متن کاملI-8: Somatic Cell Nuclear Reprogramming byMouse Oocytes Endures Beyond ReproductiveDecline
Background: The mammalian oocyte has the unique feature of supporting fertilization and normal development while being able of reprogramming the nuclei of somatic cells towards pluripotency, and occasionally even totipotency. Whilst oocyte quality is known to decay with somatic ageing, it is not a given that different biological functions decay concurrently. In this study, we tested whether ooc...
متن کاملManifestation of Alchemy Symbols in Corresponding with Islamic Mysticism and Art
Alchemy is an ancient science that has been associated with various sciences, religions and mysticism. In Islam, many mystical prayers and practices have originated from the transcendental sciences, and mysticism has had a great impact on the spread of alchemy among Muslims. The nature of alchemy is in harmony with Islamic mysticism; because they branch out from sacred sources. If the spiritual...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the most common neuroinflammatory disorders that causes disability in the young adults. In this disease immune-driven demyelination and following that inefficient remyelination occurs. Therapies for this disease are limited, especially those to enhance myelin repair. Cellular reprogramming using defined genetic factors is a way to produce remyelinating Oligoden...
